Tom Lane eed245a113 Cope with more than 64K phrases in a thesaurus dictionary.
dict_thesaurus stored phrase IDs in uint16 fields, so it would get confused
and even crash if there were more than 64K entries in the configuration
file.  It turns out to be basically free to widen the phrase IDs to uint32,
so let's just do so.

This was complained of some time ago by David Boutin (in bug #7793);
he later submitted an informal patch but it was never acted on.
We now have another complaint (bug #11901 from Luc Ouellette) so it's
time to make something happen.

This is basically Boutin's patch, but for future-proofing I also added a
defense against too many words per phrase.  Note that we don't need any
explicit defense against overflow of the uint32 counters, since before that
happens we'd hit array allocation sizes that repalloc rejects.

Back-patch to all supported branches because of the crash risk.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
